Cookie Dough Ingredients
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 tablespoon red food coloring
- 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Heat treat the flour: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the all-purpose flour evenly on a baking sheet and bake for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Check that the flour reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) to ensure it is safe for consumption. Allow the flour to cool completely before using.
- Cream butter and sugars: In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Cream them together until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
- Add liquids and coloring: Mix in the milk, vanilla extract, and red food coloring until fully combined and the dough turns a vibrant red color.
- Incorporate dry ingredients: Add the heat-treated flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt to the wet ingredients. Stir until the flour mixture is fully incorporated and no dry flour pockets remain.
- Fold in mini chocolate chips: Gently fold the mini chocolate chips into the dough to evenly distribute them without overmixing.
- Serve and enjoy: Scoop the edible cookie dough into bowls or use it as a topping for ice cream and other desserts. It can be eaten straight from the bowl with a spoon.
Notes
- Heat treating the flour is essential to eliminate any harmful bacteria, making the dough safe to eat raw.
- Use mini chocolate chips for even distribution and better texture in the dough.
- Store any leftover dough in an airtight container refrigerated for up to 5 days.
- Optionally, adjust the amount of red food coloring to reach your preferred shade of red velvet.
- This recipe is perfect for indulgent no-bake treats and dessert toppings.
